Notes

1. "Entra Marotta" and "Marotta entra" are both equally correct and mean the same thing. Usually when the subject is placed after the verb it is for emphasis, to underline that Marotta has entered and not someone else.
2. Here the word "come" does not mean "in what way", it is just an expression of surprise, a way of saying "how is it possible that..."
3. "dare in prestito" ~ "to lend" [give in loan]

Theory: Possessive adjectives

Possessive adjectives are words like: my, your, his, her, our, their etc.

We have seen some examples of possessive adjectives:

• la tua macchina ~ your car [the your car]
• la mia città ~ my city [the my city]
• la parte sua della strada ~ [the part his of-the street]

Except for family members ("mio fratello" ~ "my brother") they are always formed with the article, as seen above.

Possessive adjectives agree on gender and number both with the article and the noun:

• Feminine: la mia macchina ~ my car
• Feminine: le mie macchine ~ my cars
• Masculine: il mio cavallo ~ my horse
• Masculine: i miei cavalli ~ my horses

The forms for the other persons are very much the same:

• la tua / le tue -- il tuo / i tuoi ~ your
• la sua / le sue -- il suo / i suoi ~ his/her
• la nostra / le nostre -- il nostro / i nostri ~ our
• la vostra / le vostre -- il vostro / i vostri ~ your
• la loro / le loro -- il loro / i loro ~ their

Except for family members ("mio fratello" ~ "my brother") they are always formed with the article, as seen above.

You have put the definite article in for plural family members. Eg: my brother - mio fratello = my brothers i miei fratelli.

Yes. In fact this rule is a bit strange, the only exception in the whole language.

aint it better to use segnare there instead of fare gol

aint it better to use segnare there instead of fare gol

Either way. When I was writing the course I tried very hard to keep a limit on the amount of new language in each lesson, so fare is a much more important verb and it's good to see it repeated a lot in the conjugations etc.
